Description

Formation fluid sampling apparatus and method
Technical field
The present invention relates generally to the research to subsurface formations, especially relates to the apparatus and method that reduce the pollution of introducing the formation fluid in down-hole formation test and the sampling instrument.
Background technology
Usually well is pierced in underground or the sea bed to obtain the natural mineral reserve of oil, natural gas and other desired substance of trap in the geo-logical terrain of the earth's crust.Usually utilize the drill bit that is connected " drill string " lower end to carry out drilling well.Usually by drill string drilling fluid or " mud " are pumped into drill bit downwards.Drilling fluid lubricating and cooling drill bit, and bring drilling cuttings back ground in the annular space between the drill string and the borehole wall.
In order successfully to carry out oil-gas exploration, must have the information of the subsurface formations that penetrates about pit shaft.For example, the standard formation evaluation aspect relates to the measurement to strata pressure and in-place permeability.These are measured for predictably the production capacity and the exploitation time limit of sub-surface are very crucial.
A kind of technology that is used for measuring stratum and fluid properties comprises " wirerope " instrument of removing is lowered into well to measure formation properties.The wirerope instrument of removing is a kind of survey tool that is suspended on the wirerope, its be arranged on ground control system and be electrically connected.Described instrument is lowered in the well so that measure the formation properties at desired degree of depth place.A kind of typical wirerope instrument of removing can comprise and can bear against on the borehole wall to set up the probe that fluid is communicated with the stratum.Such wirerope instrument that removes usually is called as " formation tester ".Utilize described probe, formation tester is measured the pressure of formation fluid, produces pressure pulse, and this pressure pulse has determined in-place permeability.The formation tester instrument can also be fetched formation fluid sample usually, and this formation fluid sample is transferred into basically that ground is analyzed or is analyzed in the down-hole.
In order to use any wirerope to remove instrument, no matter described instrument is resistivity, degree of porosity testing tool or formation test tool, drill string must be regained from well so that described instrument is lowered in the well.This is called as upwards " tripping out " (" trip " uphole).In addition, also the described wirerope instrument of removing must be lowered into target zone, usually shaft bottom place or near.With the drill string withdrawal and with the combination that the wirerope instrument of removing is lowered to is that measure and needs consuming time spend a few hours, and the time of cost is depended on the degree of depth of pit shaft.Because " tripping out " drilling pipe and the wirerope instrument of removing is lowered to pit shaft needs a large amount of cost and drilling time, therefore only just use wirerope to remove instrument at described information imperative or drill string need be tripped out as bit change more owing to other reason the time.The wirerope formation tester is described in some patent documentations, as U.S. Pat 3,934, and 468, US4,860,581, US4,893,505, US4,936,139 and US5,622,223.
For fear of or will drop to minimum the downtime relevant with tripping out drill string, developed the another kind of technology of measuring formation properties, wherein with instrument and apparatus arrangement near the drill bit of well system.Therefore, during drill-well operation, just can carry out stratum measurement.This area term commonly used is " MWD " (measurement while drilling) and " LWD " (well logging during).Various down-hole MWD and LWD drilling tool are widely applied.
MWD is commonly referred to as and measures bit course and temperature in wellbore and pressure, and LWD refers to and measures formation parameter or character, as resistivity, degree of porosity, permeability, the velocity of sound and other.Real time data such as strata pressure allow drilling company weight and component to drilling mud during drill-well operation to make decision, and drilling speed and the pressure of the drill are maked decision.Though LWD has the different meanings for those of ordinary skills with MWD, the difference between them does not have any substantial connection for the disclosure, so the disclosure is not distinguished the difference between these two terms.
No matter be in wirerope operating period or during drilling well, formation evaluation usually needs formation fluid is incorporated in the downhole tool to test and/or to take a sample.Various sampling equipments typically are called as probe, stretch out to set up fluid with the stratum around the pit shaft from downhole tool to be communicated with and fluid is introduced downhole tool.A kind of typical probe is a circular element, and it stretches out and lean against on the borehole wall from downhole tool.The rubber packer of probe end is used for producing sealing with the borehole wall.Be used for forming the another kind of equipment that seals and be called as dual tubing packing with the borehole wall.Utilize dual tubing packing, thereby two elastomeric ring produce packing about described instrument expanded radially between the part pit shaft.Described ring and the borehole wall form sealing and allow and be introduced in fluid in the pit shaft part of separation and be introduced in the downhole tool.
The mud cake of lining on pit shaft is useful for helping probe and/or dual tubing packing and the borehole wall to form sealing usually.In case sealing forms, by reducing the pressure in the downhole tool, formation fluid will be introduced in the downhole tool by inlet.The example that is used in probe in the downhole tool and/or packer is in U.S. Pat 6,301, and 959, US4,860,581, US4,936,139, US6,585,045, US6,609,568 and US6,719,049 and U.S. Patent application US2004/0000433 in be described.
When remaining on the down-hole, described instrument can carry out reservoir evaluation to the fluid of introducing downhole tool.Exist multiple technologies to be used to carry out various measurements, pretest at present and/or to the sample collection of the fluid that enters downhole tool.Yet have been found that when formation fluid enters downhole tool, all contaminations as mainly with the wellbore fluids that exists from the F form of stratum " invaded zone (invaded zone) " and/or drilling mud can along with formation fluid enter as described in instrument.The invaded zone for lining on the part stratum of cake layer on the pit shaft outside radially, penetrated the stratum of cake layer back at place, invaded zone F.These mud filtrate contamination can influence the quality of measurement and/or formation fluid sample.In addition, owing to need the other time obtain test result and/or represent the sample of formation fluid, pollutant can produce the time delay of costliness in wellbore operations.In addition, these problems can produce wrong and/or useless dummy results.Therefore, need enter the formation fluid enough ' cleaning ' or ' pure ' of downhole tool to carry out Validity Test.In other words, formation fluid should have seldom or not have pollutant.
People attempt the pollutant that enters downhole tool along with formation fluid is eliminated.For example, as US4, described in 951,749, strainer is arranged in the probe to stop pollutant along with formation fluid enters downhole tool.In addition, as US6, shown in 301,959, probe has guard ring to be shifted away from cleaning fluid to make contaminanted fluid when pollutant enters probe.Recently, a kind of sampling core probe has been described among the U.S. Patent application US2006/0042793, its have the annular of stretching out around the sampling detector excircle " protection " and probe, thus try hard to make the contaminanted fluid transfer away from sampling detector.
Although existence is carried out formation evaluation and attempted to handle the technology of pollutant, still there are the mobile needs of when fluid enters and/or pass downhole tool, controlling the fluid that passes downhole tool with the reduction pollutant.Desirable is that this technology can make pollutant shift away from cleaning fluid.
In addition, in using with brill, measurement mechanism is exposed in the limiting force that exists during the drill-well operation.Structure as described in any device that is horizontally through the wall of drill column structure and extends can slacken equally as probe.Therefore, desirable is the design detector assembly, so that not only make minimumly and/or afford to stand with brill power with brill power, and any structure that is produced in drill string by the existence of detector assembly is slackened reduce to minimum degree.
